With a salary cap set at $58 million, many teams will have to get creative with free agent signings, many having to rely on the $5 million mid-level exception or the $3 million mini mid-level exception for those who were so far above the cap that they had to pay a luxury tax last season.

Atlanta Hawks: Jason Terry

Atlanta's team salary already projects to be around $60 million for next season thanks to Joe Johnson, Josh Smith and Al Horford, so look for them to make an impact with the mid-level.

Jason Terry to Atlanta would be a nice fit for many reasons.

For one, the team has seen a dramatic improvement since he last played for them in 2003-2004.

The Hawks have had success bringing in veterans as scoring threats off the bench with Jamal Crawford and Tracy McGrady in recent years.

The 34-year-old Terry could give them 15 points a game off the bench, playing either guard position and bringing championship experience to a Hawks team looking to make the next step in the Eastern Conference.

Boston Celtics: O.J. Mayo

With plenty of cap room this summer, Boston could stand to make an offer to Mayo that the Grizzlies would likely not match due to their existing extensions with Marc Gasol, Rudy Gay, Mike Conley and Zach Randolph.

The Celtics should be looking to add talented young players to their roster instead of established veterans so they have something to build around for a new championship era as the title window for the current group is quickly closing.

Mayo would be great on a veteran team that wouldn't put pressure on him to be the man right away. Placed in a backcourt with All-Star Rajon Rondo should only further his development.

Secondly, it's no secret the Bobcats locker room is a little messy right now. How bad could they use one of the most professional and classiest players in the NBA to help soothe things out and teach the young 'Cats what it means to be a pro?

Lastly, the Bobcats flat out can't score the basketball.

At 87.1 points per game, Charlotte is the lowest scoring team in the entire NBA. Enter Jamison, who at the tender age of 35 is still dropping 17.4 points and 6.3 rebounds per game for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Jamison wouldn't make a big difference in terms of wins in the present, but the experience, knowledge and leadership he would provide to the younger players could make a huge impact on their future.

Cleveland Cavaliers: Spencer Hawes

The Cavaliers main needs are on the wing and at the center position.

Rather than take a gamble on a player like Andre Drummond, the Cavs should elect to take one of the many talented shooting guards or small forwards in this years draft and instead focus their efforts on signing a proven center like Hawes.

Dallas Mavericks: Deron Williams

As nice as it would be for Williams to go from New Jersey to the defending champion Mavericks, Dallas would be the true winner of this marriage.

An All-Star point guard is just what this aging Mavs team needs to stay competitive in a tough Western Conference for years to come. Jason Kidd will likely retire and Jason Terry is a free agent, leaving a huge hole at the quarterback position in Dallas (although some would argue the Cowboys have the same problem).

A Deron and Dirk led Dallas team would once again top the Western Conference standings.

New Jersey Nets: Deron Williams

At this point it's Deron Williams or bust for New Jersey/Brooklyn, as they packaged the farm to get him and now face the strong possibility of losing him for nothing.

What could have been a top five pick in this years NBA draft now appears to be a half a year rental of Gerald Wallace in a rebuilding year, something that shouldn't exactly have Williams scrambling for the extension papers and a pen.

The Nets have to resign Williams to a max deal, they have to.

If they don't?

The Charlotte Bobcats reign of soon-to-be worst winning percentage of all time could be short lived.

New York Knicks: Jeremy Lin/ Steve Nash

New York would love to add Steve Nash AND keep Jeremy Lin, and there's actually a chance they could do both.

The curious case of Lin's contract status has been settled, as New York can offer him up to $5 million a year through their mid-level exception and being a restricted free agent under the "Gilbert Arenas Provision", other teams cannot offer more than the average salary of $5 million, something the Knicks can match.

If a team chooses not to offer Lin the $5 million per year deal, the Knicks could use their bi-annual exception of $2 million on him and save the mid-level exception for a player like Steve Nash.

Either way, Jeremy Lin stands to see a significant increase in pay compared to the $762,195 he's making this season.

Orlando Magic: Ray Allen/Steve Nash/Whatever Big Name They Can Convince

Normally I would peg a teams own restricted free agent as a must sign, but the Orlando Magic are not in a normal situation.

While bringing back Ryan Anderson is a must, he's not going to single-handedly convince Dwight Howard to stay.

Orlando needs to make some sort of an impact signing, even though they're extremely limited with what they can do.

With no cap room available to make an offer for Deron Williams or Eric Gordon, Orlando must instead settle with past-their-prime players like Nash or Allen and hope they agree to a $5 million exception.

Orlando can't afford to stand pat and not do anything, so a player like Allen or Nash is their best hope in free agency.

Phoenix Suns: D.J. Augustin

If the Suns aren't able to convince Steve Nash to stay in the desert, they need to bring in someone to replace him.

Enter D.J. Augustin, the former Texas Longhorn who suffered the unenviable fate of being drafted by the Charlotte Bobcats.

Just 24 years old, it would probably be best for both Augustin and the Bobcats if they two parted ways and both started over fresh.

When handed the starting job with no pressure from Raymond Felton or now Kemba Walker, Augustin has played a solid game as evidenced by his career last season in which he scored 14.4 points and 6.1 assists while playing in all 82 games.

If they can bring back Nash for a year or two, great.

If not, Augustin would be a great young point guard to start over with.

Portland Trail Blazers: Deron Williams

Up in the Pacific Northwest, the Portland Trail Blazers have secretly been devising a master plan all along.

What was once going to be an $80 million payroll this season is scheduled to shrink to under $30 million before next season starts.

Free agent point guard Raymond Felton will certainly not be asked to return due to his poor play, nor will the expiring contract of Mehmet Okur and Hasheem Thabeet.

Was this the plan all along? To have Felton suck so they were forced to trade off Gerald Wallace and get crazy amounts of cap space for next season?

Well if it was, it certainly seems to be working.

Portland is one of the few teams that will have the money to offer Williams a maximum contract this offseason. Couple that will All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge, Wesley Mathews, Nicolas Batum and a likely top five pick in this years draft, and you've got the makings of a scary-good team out West.

Portland may be the dark horse for Deron Williams, but don't count them out of the race.

San Antonio Spurs: Carl Landry

There, now that that's out of the way the Spurs can focus their attention to other free agents.

One possible target should include Carl Landry, as San Antonio could use another young, big man to help take pressure off Duncan.

Landry is 28 and should be in the prime of his career. Currently averaging 12.5 points and 5.3 rebounds per game for the New Orleans Hornets, Landry owns a lifetime field goal percentage of 54 percent.

Landry should be interested as well, as he'd get to learn from one of the best to ever play in what could possible be his last season in the NBA.
